I chose this garage because of its good reviews and I understand why. Stuff is very friendly, the appointment was booked quickly and they took my car on time. Besides of the service booked, they changed a lump in the car and couple of more extra things that I was not charged for.
Very happy with the service and I will come back when needed. A mechanic to trust.

A great service. Very communicative and helpful staff, making the experience much less painful than it could have been. Thoroughly efficient job done and good value too. I would certainly recommend Car Technic and will be returning when the next car saga strikes

Quite simply, brilliant!
The service and care was first rate. Will definitely be using Car Technic in the future and would not hesitate to recommend on.

The work itself was really excellent, however i guess this is the problem with a lot of local garages, there isn't a lot of paper work involved. My piece of advice would be to put a bit more confidence in customers- so let us know who is picking up the car and where it's going. However like I said the work itself was great!

What is a Timing Belt?

The timing belt helps keep your Dacia running smoothly - it’s a piece of rubber compound that synchronises the rotation of the crankshaft and the camshaft to ensure the engine’s valves open and close at just the right time.

When do I need to replace my Timing Belt?

The recommended intervals for replacing a timing belt vary between 60,000 and 100,000 miles depending on the model of your Dacia. You will find the recommended replacement intervals in your car’s maintenance schedule, or our Hackney garages can check for you. However, a timing belt can break before the recommended interval.

Our Hackney garages will also be able to check the condition of the belt itself.

What does it cost to change a Timing Belt?

The timing belt itself is not particularly expensive, but the cost of labour means that, in the Hackney area, you should expect to pay between £300 and £400 depending on the Dacia model that you own.

What happens if my Timing Belt breaks?

The timing of your Dacia's engine must be kept to exact specifications or the engine will not run correctly, if at all. In the worst case scenario, the valves and pistons could collide at high speed and essentially destroy the engine. The best case scenario is that the timing belt breaks and you are towed to the nearest Hackney garage without doing major damage to the engine.
